- Per Wickstrom, the CEO of Best Drug Rehabilitation and principal writer on his popular website that helps individuals and families overcome obstacles, has published a poignant and practical new blog post to help parents mend broken relationships with their kids.
//
//
//
The practical strategies and tips that Per Wickstrom writes about in his blog post include:
Acknowledging the problem. Regardless of who’s at fault, or how the problems should be solved, the first step that parents have to take is to acknowledge that a problem – or perhaps, more than one problem – exists.
Put aside “right” and “wrong.” Often, the need to be seen as “right” supersedes the need to actually solve a problem. And while some kids may lack the maturity and life experience to let go of “right” and “wrong,” parents need to show real leadership by re-framing the issue so that everyone can be right. Surprisingly, many kids will accept a solution as long as they don’t feel like they’re bullied into accepting it.
Communication is the key. While parents and kids may be using the same words (i.e. “responsibility” or “maturity” or “freedom” and so on), their interpretation can differ – sometimes dramatically. As such, parents need to take a step back and ensure that the message that they’re sending out is, in fact, the same one that is being received. If not, they need to adjust the message so that real communication actually takes place.
Be a friend. Though they may drive their hard working and under-appreciated parents up the wall, the fact is that kids today are under enormous -- and in many ways unprecedented --pressure. While parents cannot afford to forget the responsibilities and obligations of their role, they can certainly remember to be a friend at the same time and show care and compassion.
Find common ground. There are some problems that may be too complicated to solve, or that simply cannot be solved in the short term (i.e. kids wanting things that their parents cannot afford, etc.). However, that doesn’t mean that parents can’t search – and find – common ground with their kids, and engage them on that level. Even the smallest thing, such as watching a football game together or seeing a movie, can lay the foundation for what will eventually be a strong, lasting bond.
Added Per Wickstrom: “It’s also important for parents to remember that they need to customize their approach to their kids’ specific needs, and the requirements of each situation. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to parenting, which is why it’s one of the most difficult – and yet, one of the most rewarding – jobs in the world!”

Independent Artist John Keenan Releases New CD – “Where I Went Wrong”
Eclectic Hip-Hop Album Features A Wildly Novel Array Of Sub-Genres, From Rock, Classic And Funk To Alternative And Even Classical
Wichita, Kansas may not be known as a national hotbed for hip-hop music—and Caucasian rap, at that—but if John Keenan has his say, that’s about to change. The self-styled composer and musician recently released the album “Where I Went Wrong” (WIWW), a masterful 19-track opus that meshes its R&B foundation with a remarkably unexpected array of aural pedigrees.
Released late last year on Full Circle Entertainment, its message is also a far cry from the bravado of most hip-hop, instead testifying to humility, healing and the long road to recovery, following Keenan’s years-long battle with drugs and alcohol.
And people are beginning to take notice - In the past month, the Great Bend Tribune ran a front-page feature on Keenan while his social media metrics continue to climb amassing nearly 75,000 views and downloads across his various YouTube and social media platforms.
Keenan collaborated on “WIWW” with guitarist and vocalist Scott Martz, who has endured his own path to recovery and co-composed many of the tracks and provides guitars, vocals and production chops. In addition, the album features Keenan’s brother Mark and his cousin Tyler, along with featured guests Kansas City rapper/singer Irv Da Phenom and veteran Wichita rapper Kanzaz Chiefa.
The track list includes “One Step At A Time,” “Love Is Just A Game,” “Love and Peace,” “Country Western,” “The Journey,” and “Lie To Kick It.”
The digital download is available for purchase through iTunes, Amazon and other online retailers.
If you would like more info about this artist, a CD or a secure link to the music, or would like to schedule an interview with Keenan, please call Paul Miraldi at 917-922-1043 or email paul@miraldiandmacleod.com

A group of 5th through 8th graders at Rutgers Preparatory School are coming together to adopt six families who suffered losses from Hurricane Sandy.
“Our goal is not to have a holiday toy drive, but to collect the materials that are necessary for them to get back in their homes and get their lives back,” according to the iVideo produced by the 8th grade Student Council and released on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38AM0-AoniE
Each family is providing a “wish list” of items they said they needed to get through this tough time. The students have partnered with the Hurricane Sandy Adopt-A-Family charity, Spring Lake Heights, NJ, to identify the families in need. https://www.facebook.com/AdoptAFamilyHurricaneSandy?fref=ts
"The Rutgers Prep community is focused on doing all we can to helping ease the burden of rebuilding after the storm," says Principal John Miller, “so when our students expressed their interest in adopting these families, we put our total support behind them.”
Peter Renzulli, President/CEO of Perform Account, a NJ based financial services company and one of the businesses that donated their services added, “It’s been inspiring to see the community come together and contribute in so many ways in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. We’re proud to offer our services to help an affected family and business get on their feet again and to ensure they don’t fall behind on important tax and reporting requirements.
The six adopted families selected are scattered through devastated areas in Union Beach, NJ and Staten Island. The collection ends on December 21st so all families will receive their items before Christmas. ]]>Thu, 20 Dec 2012 19:57:00 +0000Bookkeepers 2 Go To Provide Free Services For Small Businesses Affected By Hurricane Sandyhttp://miraldiandmacleod.rushprnews.com/2012/11/09/bookkeepers-2-go-to-provide-free-services-for--small-businesses-affected-by-hurricane-sandy
